At Icnea we are pleased to announce the renewed connection between our Channel Manager and one of the most complete holiday accommodation booking portals in the market:
Holidu. A collaboration to enhance the visibility and convenience in the booking management of our customers.
Holidu's mission is to provide a user-centric platform to make the process of listing, managing bookings and finding holiday accommodation an easy and hassle-free process for property managers, owners and guests alike. With over 10 million properties in Europe published on its various websites such as
Spain-Holiday and
Hundredrooms, and over 5 million confirmed bookings in the last year, Holidu is an essential partner for holiday rental managers and owners.
What advantages does Holidu offer you?
- Global exposure: Holidu's connected properties reach millions of users worldwide through its 23 international web domains.
- Brand recognition: the platform always displays your logo on your listings so that your brand is present.
- Easy and complete synchronisation: Holidu collects data and content from the Channel Manager so you don't need to duplicate ads. This includes: descriptions, photos, prices, availability, services and booking conditions.
- Account manager: as a Holidu partner you have the support of an agent to help you optimise your performance.
- Direct bookings and payments: Guests book directly on Holidu and payments can be made directly on the platform.
Moreover, thanks to the new connection with Icnea, our customers will be able to enjoy additional functionalities such as:
- Holidu Payments, Holidu's automatic payment platform.
- Synchronisation of booking cancellations.
- Sending reviews.
- Sustainable Services, which allows accommodations to receive the Eco Distinction that will allow them to stand out in searches as a sustainable accommodation. Holidu data shows that accommodations with this recognition are 11.51% more likely to receive clicks, and 28.73% more likely to have a booking confirmed.
Why choose Holidu?
Holidu takes care of bookings for you, including payment, guest service, modifications or cancellations thanks to a dedicated guest service team that allows managers to free up their workload. The global exposure offered by Holidu allows you to increase your conversion rate and the number of bookings. In addition, multiple payment methods are offered according to the user's preference and in case of cancellation within the set period, the booking will not be billed.
Registering and publishing properties on Holidu is completely free of charge. The model used by the platform is based on a 15% commission on the price/night not including extra charges that will be applied only when the booking is successful.
